Faults

This car suffers from premature wear of the stock bearing supports and problems with headlight sealing, which can reduce driving safety. An electrical system error leads to periodic trunk lock failures, while unstable tire sensor operation creates uncertainty on the road. Overall, the reliability and build quality of this car are questionable, which is important to consider when making a purchase decision.
